Like many of you, I like to decorate my holiday trees with their own unique personality. This year I wanted something different for my big tree in the living room, so in addition to the silver and white ornaments and white berry garland I used some of the fabulous tags I have collected from various talented artists. I love how it turned out and hope you do as well. Here is a tour of trees in my home...

The "tag" tree. A 7' slim pre~lit tree in an old concrete urn. The tags are all from etsy sellers.

The dining room tree is a table~top tree in an old crusty white bucket. This tree gets a mix of new and old silver ornaments and creamy cotton icicles.

This is a new addition to my home this year and I call it the "bling" tree. It has seam binding with old buttons, an old watch and a collection of old pins. It sits in a crusty old light fixture.

I love this old bottle brush tree.

I have a pair of these silver trees on the mantle in black iron urns.

This tree is in the kitchen on top of the refrigerator. It looks good just bare I think.

I adore this "Charlie Brown" tree.

I couldn't resist a night shot of this twig tree on the porch, shot through the lace curtain.

Wonderful ideas! I love the tag tree...in fact, I love it so much, I think everyone should send you a card to add to it. Maybe with a special sentiment written on it. All I have is business cards, but I can write Merry Christmas on it!Debbie

I'm loving all your trees. You have some great ideas for bases. I always try to think of new ideas each year. I'm a little late on my decorating this year, but will hopefully have some time to work on it now.

Antique dealer, junk lover, one of the "green" people before we even knew we were. Wife, mother of two sons, grandma to three little angels. Twice a year Mr. Sweet Pea and I make the long drive to Texas to do the Marburger Farms show. We love it and wish we lived closer. But then there are those three little angels... Never tire of looking for treasure and re-doing my home.
